flash_programming thread: Flash application to launch MS Access database


Message #1 by "Alex Gonçalves" <alexbg@h...> on Mon, 4 Jun 2001 14:42:26
Hi

I'm trying to make a Flash 4 application (to insert in a CD) which has a 
button to launch an MS Access 2000 database (or 97, I don't care).

I have these two questions:

 1. Using FS Command, only .EXE files at the same folder as the flash 
application can be executed from the flash application?

 2. How can I open my MDB file just by pressing a button on the flash 
projector? If the argument at the FS Command is "xxxxx.mdb" it won't work. 
Should I have to include some kind of Access viewer (but I think there is 
not such a thing to view the forms and perform the queries in the database 
as it exists to see and print MS Word documents)?

 Thanks
 Alex Goncalves
